The absence of Sergio Perez from the grid (for now) has therefore changed nothing for the Mexican Grand Prix. While legitimate concerns could be raised regarding the future of the Mexican round on the calendar Formula 1, in the absence of the Guadalajara driver and with the end of the contract approaching in 2025, these evaporated this Wednesday with the announcement of the extension between the Mexican GP and F1 until 2028.

Since its return to the calendar in 2015, the Mexican Grand Prix – officially the Grand Prix of Mexico City – has established itself as one of the flagship events of the year, boasting passionate fans and an often electric atmosphere. Held at the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, with its impressive final sector stadium, the Mexican round has been voted the best event of the season multiple times over the past decade. The Mexico City layout offers a unique challenge in the championship, as it is the highest circuit (by far) of the season, at 2 meters above sea level.

“We are very pleased to announce that the Mexico City Grand Prix will remain on our calendar until 2028. Formula 1 is about energy, passion and emotion, and every year the unique atmosphere created by our fans in Mexico City is one of the most incredible and energetic experiences in our championship,” rejoices Stefano Domenicali, CEO of Formula 1.

“I would like to express my sincere thanks to President Claudia Sheinbaum for her strong commitment to Formula 1, to Prime Minister Clara Brugada for her continued support, and to Alejandro Soberón Kuri, whose leadership has been fundamental to the success of this event. I would also like to thank the local stakeholders and businesses who share our vision and make this event so special. We look forward to continuing this extraordinary collaboration and seeing the incredible enthusiasm of Mexican fans in October.” This year, the Mexican Grand Prix will take place from October 24 to 26, 2025.

For Stefano Domenicali to feel obliged to thank the President and the head of the Mexican government for their commitment to F1, it would be interesting to know the amount of the check written by the Mexican authorities to contribute, or settle, the bill for the Mexico City GP!!
